  Threading
Posted by: jrmrhrb00 - 01-09-2025, 03:27 PM - Forum: Extensions - Replies (10)

I think that it is interesting that with the wonderful LitDev Extension that there isn't at least one function for threading. Maybe, I missed it if there is, but I looked and I haven't found anything. LitDev did write an excellent article about threading and how to avoid its pitfalls. I suggest a new function for the LitDev extension called (LDThreading). What it would consist of I'm not sure, but I am sure the best person to create it would be LitDev.

  LDDialogs.SetStartupPosition
Posted by: Yumda - 01-06-2025, 02:33 AM - Forum: Extensions - Replies (4)

Hi there:

does lddialogs.setstartupposition work for lddialogs.inputbox?  

I tried to set it like this LDDialogs.SetStartupPosition(373,210,1) and then called lddialogs.inputbox,

eg

LDDialogs.SetStartupPosition(373,210,1)
dialog1 = lddialogs.inputbox("","")


but the input box position is not set in relation to the graphicwindows... any ideas?

or does the setposition option not apply to the input box?

Regards

  Will this forum be beautified in 2025?
Posted by: eddylo - 12-27-2024, 04:34 PM - Forum: Discussion - Replies (3)

This forum is nice. Sure. I have learned a lot of knowledge by reading the posts here.

If the forum is rationally beautified, maybe the number of frequent visitors will increase significantly. The forum will be more attractive and more active!

Use standard Small Basic to make an animation of an hourglass (egg timer). 

Something on the lines of this:

  Small Basic Program Conversion to C#
Posted by: jrmrhrb00 - 12-09-2024, 01:05 PM - Forum: Discussion - Replies (9)

What can a person do when they have a small basic program that they want to convert to c# and the conversion comes up with a bunch of error messages that you don't understand that originates from visual studio. The program runs fine in small basic. The problems occur after conversion. This is an issue with visual studio. It generally gives potential fixes that never work and the explanation of what is wrong is way beyond my comprehension.

Most of the time I end up just leaving the running program in small basic and give up on converting to c#. I know that is not the ideal way of doing it, but what else can a person do?

  Missing .jpg files

In the article for how to Graduate to c#. It mentions 3 .jpg files. I can't find them.

I assume they're on the forum somewhere, but I don't have a clue as to where.

Sorry for being a bit off-topic. Can you clarify? How does crowd marketing work, and can you provide an example? Also, is there any useful software for this?
